Greetings, Brethren! I hope everyone has survived the storm and pow-er outages unscathed. If any Brother requires any assistance, please let me know. I apologize, but unfortunately I was unable to put together a longer message as I too was without power. I will have a full message to you in the December Trestleboard. We have a very busy month ahead and I look for-ward to seeing you in Lodge. . Sincerely & Fraternally,
